I went through this evening and added Sports Illustrated's photos of the NHL masks of this season. I also added photos and templates of the pads for the goalies I'd missed. And I added a few more photos for those that were lacking.
Sorry I was behind this season.
I Love Goalies!
The position of goalie has an inherent romanticism: masked men clad with cool armor, serving as the last line of defense. They play entire games, with an unparalleled ability to impact outcomes. When they're on, they can single-handedly defeat a giant foe. They are the consummate underdogs and towering superheroes all at once.

I think these pads might have been the ones he had when he was with Detroit, because you can tell by the photo above, he had all-white pads in Calgary.

Check Out This Great Website for Goalies (Goalie Force)
I was contacted by Matti Korhonen, a goalie and goalie coach from Finland. He is the founder of Goalie Force, a network of coaches, personal trainers, agents and other hockey professionals whose mission is "to increase your chances making it to the NHL by providing you the knowledge, tools and services that you’ll need on your way to the top."
Matti's goal is that GoalieForce.com will become a website where top notch goalie coaches from all over the world will share some of their knowledge and that goalies will know GoalieForce.com as a site where they can get all the information, training tools and services they’ll need on their way to the NHL.
They offer information, instructional videos, and even online goalie coaching.
Check out Goalie Force if you're looking to improve your game, or are just curious what's out there for goalies.
